Last of a case... Part of me is wishing I had more... However, it may also be on the downslope... Still super - but unremarkable. (Maybe I've been drinking a LOT of GREAT Blanc de Blancs, lately...) This is most likely 2013 Richard G. Peterson Brut Rose’ from Yountville, Napa Valley, CA (Amuse Bouche) Simply delicious no matter what you call it or how much I did or didn’t pay. Rich, dense, creamy, brioche-y, fruity, yet delicate. Strawberries and the …

PnP then revisited an hour later. This completely transformed in the bottle over an hour with half left. Rich strawberries and cream, some green apple notes as well. Plenty of ripe acidity but well balanced. Very tasty wine that could certainly go away in the cellar for many years. Youthful and lively to drink now but certainly has room to develop further. No rating because I don't have significant sparkling wine experience and am not sure how to accurately rate …

Richer strawberry color than I recall. Bottle variation? Possibly. Cheers.

Drank over two days. Intense candied strawberries and cream on the nose. On day one, the palate was quite acidic and it was tough to get much more out of it. On day two, it mellowed and was rather tasty. A fine mousse, similar to the first bottle. This is certainly tasty, but not very complex. I can't tell whether it needs a lot more time to develop, or if I'm seeing this wine at its full potential.

Very tasty and appealing New World sparkler. And I say that because it doesn't taste like any Euro rose' or Champers I've ever had. It tastes like a nice, ripe Napa Pinot. It has a pretty peachy-pink color with a fine, average fizz. I think it has developed quite nicely over the past 6 months. 4+11+17+8= 90

TNs are same as before. But the nose and palate developed much faster than months ago. I keep on asking myself why didn't I buy a full case of this.

Informal notes on phone - Nose - Strawberries. I should have bought a case and not a half. Awesome aroma. Palate - Strawberries and cream. Brioche. Yeast. Overall - Wow. Underestimated this one. This will be a fun one to throw in blind tastings. Really surprising. Excited to see where this goes over the next few years. Easy drinker but still has the right amount of complexity to punch way higher than its cost.

Wonderful sparkling rose. Flavorful and balanced. Rich, but not over the top. The finished is a bit clipped and may improve with age.

Bright hot pink to clear ombre with moderate but very fine bubbles. PnP: Fine nose of smooth fresh strawberries, cardamom, toasted brioche, and almonds. Fine bubbles evaporate off the tongue, creamy mouthfeel, spot on acidity, and dry. Tart strawberries, cherries, yeast, and a hint of spices. Medium light fine-grained tannins. Everlasting finish of saline, slate, toasted almonds, toasted light brioche, and a hint of graphite. The nose and structure developed rapidly as it got more air. We put a stopper …

Well, I don't think I would mistake it for Champagne, but it still has undeniable appeal. Strawberries and cream with a good balance of acidity. Nice light ruby color with light endurance and energy in the mousse. No rush to drink, in fact, time might be of some help in filling out the bouquet. 4+11+17+7= 89

This is all strawberries and cream right now. Simple but enjoyable. I think this wine needs a lot more bottle time before passing final judgment. Will probably wait a year before trying another.

100% Pinot noir. 8 years on the lees. PNP and had over a game of Sequence with the wife. Pale salmon pink, minimal but consistent streams of small baby bubbles. Some lavender on the nose (unfortunately my nose was stopped today up so was not able to smell much). On the palate, strawberry, some minerality, stone fruit, lavender and a hint of pink grapefruit. A bit creamy, but still crisp and refreshing. Gdry and lingering finish. We are just starting …

Salmon, almost candy pink. Nose is not very complex, has a mix of strawberries and raspberries but almost like they were squeezed and diluted with water. Palate is better, decent length, rhubarb, raspberries, slight tartness and little astringent but not unpleasantly so. Decent acidity, little bit of minerality on the finish. edit: After a few hours of air, this improves significantly. Lots of structure that was hiding appears from the background, the nose is still onedimensional and simple, but the …
